"You agreed? Really?" Earl squinted at her. It had been a few days since Alfons move back in the mansion and Earl saw him just now when he arrived. "I didn't think you would actually allow him to move back."
"It's fine. I don't mind." Isn't that nice? She already installed CCTV everywhere inside this house. If Alfons move back, she could easily monitor him. "Anyway, I didn't expect to see you so soon. Why are you here? Did sothing happen?"
"Well I want to take you to a gala."
"Oh?"
"Isn't it ti that you go back to the human society?"
Gabi couldn't help but laugh. "What are you talking about?"
"Grandfather believes it is ti that you join gatherings and show yourself to the upper echelons."
"A gala, huh." Gabi wasn't planning to do it now. However, she knew that this ti would co. Her grandfather would do his best to let everyone know she was the heir of the Ren Family. If this happens, it would be more troubleso to kick the opportunist Alfons in her life without implicating the Ren Family.
Knowing Alfons, he would co up with a way to integrate himself with the Ren Family and if she openly do sothing about it, Alfons would certainly use his connection and play the pity card. That snake would surely act like the Ren Family doesn't like him because he grew up poor.
This would only attract the attention of the people that hated the Rens. "I will think about it," she added.
"Alright. Here is the invitation. As for the dress "
"I want it white. I have pink hair. It would suit ."
"Good, them is black and white, so a white dress would be good. I will send you a catalog once you decide sothing."
"Thank you, Earl."
"Heh? Why are you being so formal all of a sudden? You are making nervous."
Gabi smiled in response. After a few minutes, Earl told her that he still had a few etings today. To her surprise however, Earl suddenly invited her to join the eting with him.
"I don't think "
"Co on I am the VP of Ren Aesthetics. I can introduce you as my secretary. This would be a good experience too. Since you haven't t with those cocky businessn before."
Gabi smiled. In this lifeti, she hasn't t with anyone from the big company yet. However, in the previous tiline, she t those people every day. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were occupied with people who wanted to show their support to Alfons or gain his favor. "Alright. I will join you."
"Good." Earl seed excited. Gabi didn't understand why this man looked so happy. Wasn't he scared that she would grab the CEO position away from him? Or does Earl really value the Ren Family so much that he no longer has any ambition to beco the head?
How could it be possible?
Soon, the two arrived at Ren Aesthetics. Gabi walked next to Earl as they imdiately went to the boardroom where Earl was going to have a eting with the other executives. Just as expected, after the eting, Earl imdiately started asking her questions about it.
Gabi couldn't help but laugh inwardly. This man Why does it look like he was a teacher trying to test her? Did he really think she would be interested in working behind a desk and deal with these troubleso executives?
"I think that proposal is pretty good. The company is on the right track," Gabi answered. "However, I would suggest that you buy the area surrounding the southern cities. The larger the better."
"Why?"
"Well I have so good intuition about it." She couldn't really announce that soon. The governnt is going to decide to build a new airport in that area. "After the election, there will be new changes. And if I am in the position, I would go on so enormous projects."
"Big as in?"
"As in big like a huge airport for tourists or another port and since the southern area had a lot of cris and corruption, they don't have a lot of ports and don't even have its own airport."
"Whoa actually, grandfather already ntioned this before. I believe he already started buying properties in that area."
"Hmmm. Elections could do a lot of things. Right now, the Sealey Family is doing the sa thing so I suggest that you try to buy everything that they want to buy."
"Eh? Cousin this"
"Don't think too much about it. It's just that I am a very petty person." Gabi smiled. She was casually sitting on the couch, reading a fashion magazine. "Also, Mr. Aldoneto, the head of the Finance Departnt. You should ask soone to secretly investigate him. He looked suspicious."
"Is this another one of your instincts?"
"Yep. I can read people's faces."
Earl frowned at her joke. "Mr. Aldoneto had been in this company for years are you sure that "
"If you investigate him and you ca up with nothing, then it's not a problem. It only ans he can be trusted. However, if sothing ca up, then it's your win. Either way, this is a win-win for you."
Earl shook his head. "You are starting to sound like grandfather. For so reason, the way you say things reminded of my own mother's words. Isn't that weird? Anyway, alright, I will do that. "Earl said. After a while, he gave so instructions to his secretary before leaving with Gabi to et soone. However, on her way out of the company, she received a call from Spencer, the butler.
"What did you say?"
"Miss, soone just said that she is the late master's aunt, that she is your grandmother."
"Uhhh grandmother?" Gabi didn't know that there is soone else alive on the Sutton side. She started frowning. In the previous life, it was just her and Alfons. Everyone in the Sutton Family is already dead. Even their distant relatives were either not in Du Empire or are already six feet below the ground.
She would know this because she investigated this matter before. So why would soone just arrive and introduce herself as Gabi's grandmother?
"Shall I let her in?"
"Yes, bring her to the garden. Ah, is she alone?"
"No. There is a woman. Her granddaughter."
"Hmmm alright take them to the garden. Do not let them inside the mansion."
"Understood."
